A blog named for specious reasoning in interpreting the Scriptures ("Well, Leviticus says you can't eat shellfish..."). We've sought to help the good folk of the ELCA and her closest partners to be not deceived by the Confusionists (for whom the clear window of Scriptures, Creed, and Confessions is but a dim mirror) at the helm.

Looking like the promotion of homosexuality as a lifestyle is growing

One of the lines that is thrown out oh so casually is that it seems like God must make people gay since there are so many. Seems to me that this is but another canard, another example of God being blamed for what people are pretty good at all by themselves.

What do I mean? Do gays promote their lifestyle of not? Have they been successful at convincing liberals to join them in promoting the homosexual lifestyle as a civil rights thing or not? Have they convinced businesses to join them in promoting the homosexual lifestyle as a normal thing or not? Have they convinced teachers to join them in promoting the homosexual lifestyle as a something children should not discriminate against or not? Have they convinced media to join them in promoting the homosexual lifestyle as a good thing or not?

Read the following:

May 2, 2006 – "CBS and the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD) have teamed up to produce a series of Public Service Announcements(PSAs) that will be dropped into a day-time soap opera promoting teen homosexuality.

"THEN TAKE ACTION: Write a letter of concern to Mr. Moonves asking for CBS to give equal time to Rev Lou Sheldon of the Traditional Values Coalition to present an alternative viewpoint on homosexual behavior. Forward this alert to your friends!

"GLAAD only wants a positive portrayal of homosexuality presented to the American people over public airwaves. This is a betrayal of the public trust. CBS should be willing to prevent a fair and balanced message on homosexuality—and not promote only one viewpoint on this controversial topic.

"Go WRITE THAT LETTER! Better yet, write a letter, send an email and then RING HIS PHONE!!!"
